Eminem has been very vocal about his anti-Trump stance ever since Cheeto Jesus first took office in 2017. With so much riding on the line in this years presidential election, the greatest white rapper in Hip-Hop is doing his part to help get the first Black woman elected into the Oval Office.
According to Variety, Slim Shady has hit the campaign trail in his hometown of Detroit and will be throwing his celebrity weight behind the Harris/Walz ticket as he’ll be introducing former President Barack Obama when the 44th president of the United States takes the stage in Motor City Tuesday night (Oct. 22). No stranger to the political world, the “Stan” rapper will once again be using his popularity to help save American democracy from a political party that seems intent on turning the U.S. into an autocracy with Donald Trump at the helm.
Per Variety:
Eminem, who supported the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris ticket in 2020 with a campaign ad featuring his song “Lose Yourself,” has angrily criticized the Republican candidate, former President Donald Trump, multiple times in the past, calling him a “racist,” among other things, during a 2017 freestyle called “The Storm” at the BET Awards.
Obama has said “Lose Yourself” was one of his favorite get-psyched songs during his own presidential campaign in 2008.
As the presidential race reaches its final days, Harris and Trump are virtually tied in five key battleground states, including Michigan, according to the New York Times‘ polling average — with neither candidate ahead by even a single point. The five states are Pennsylvania, Michigan, Nevada, Wisconsin and North Carolina.
How this race is even this close is beyond us, but then again, racism, right?
Unfortunately, for Eminem fans, the iconic rapper isn’t expected to perform any of his numerous hits or drop one of his famous off-the-top-of-his-head freestyles, but you never know. If Obama asks nicely he just may perform his favorite cut, “Lose Yourself.”
Either way best believe MAGA country will take to social media to slander Eminem in every way, shape and form for supporting Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. It’s inevitable, but we doubt he cares one bit.
